Grand Mayan Tequila Silver

So its holiday season and interesting bottles make nice gifts. The Grand Mayan assortment certainly qualifies for the bottles as they are some of the nicest looking glazed and unglazed ceramics you will see in a liquor store. It's certainly priced as a near to high end tequila but is it really a top notcher? The sugars are a bit light on the nose, this isn't overly sweet tequila, however it does have a nice purity about it, nothing in the sour range, like a rested Don Julio, its clearly unaged and also very clean. What sugars are present come in with some slight mint and also some tropical fruit sugar aspects. There are some tart and also hot cinnmon flavors throughout the middle and ending, it finishes with some real character and doesn't just wash out like number of cheap white tequilas. Nor does it have any off putting chemical notes, definitely a bit of crafting going on to make this a better than average and interesting taste for a blanco tequila. While I prefer a rested or sometimes a well aged tequila I'm gonna say this is worthy of the price point, given it falls in the 70-90 range. The reposado bottle is a nice deep blue and gold noted glaze, either way these are nice enough to both drink and keep as art work.

While it might seem high end for enjoying in a margarita it made for a simply excellent rocks margarita. Highly recommend.
